What are you going to do with your hands while you are concentrating on your writing? They are going to be dangling there, useless for nothing except reflex act

What are you going to do with your hands while you are concentrating on your writing? They are going to be dangling there, useless for nothing except reflex actions like picking your nose or driving your car (!).
I already have attached devices that let me enter text faster than I can think it. I think the tech only gets interesting for the handy-capable when it goes beyond words, capturing images or sounds as you imagine them, and that is a long way of.

And while I can type sentences pretty fast, sometimes I get bogged down with things like code and entering special characters and being able to subvocalize a single syllable to activate macros would be pretty nice. (Yes I know you could do that without a brain interface, but the point is that hands are limited.) Edit: why does this comment get a downvote?
- stubish 8y agoThese use cases are all great for speech recognition, which is decades ahead of brain interfaces and less invasive (and just as quiet if you want by sub-vocalizing into a throat mike). Again, not particularly interesting to most of us but very interesting to people with various disabilities.
